I admit - I love Ramen noodles.

That was some easy food when I didn't have a lot of money for groceries. They were literally 20 cents each.

Homemade broth and soba (buckwheat) noodles with lots of veggies.

Thanks!

I love them too. DH and I sometimes eat them for dinner then the next night don't feel bad splurging on some fresh seafood. Double win!

Shin Ramyun. I throw in some bok choy, scallions, and a runny-yolked egg.

I only get this brand because it is the only brand without MSG.

Husband and kids loved the noodles. I couldn't get past the smell. I have never eaten them.

I would just get one and make it with half the seasoning and a ton of vegetables. Make it once a month?

My kids are begging for Gatorade, but I hate all those artificial colors.

View and ramen and Gatorade as occasional treats, not regular food. There's something sad about a life without the the occasional "bad for you, but tastes so good" food.

I loved having the picante ramen now can't find them anywhere.

Not proud of this, but I've opened a package of ramen and eaten the entire brick raw and without the msg pack. Delicious.

Thanks! Yeah, she asks for that, too. Sigh...

There are some that are much lower in fat, and if you only use half the flavor packet you can cut the salt content as well. They do not taste as amazing as the regular ramen but they are okay and your kid won't feel like she's missing out.

Thanks! Any brand recs?

I am going to the grocery tonight and having some for dinner. I've tried to fight the craving all day, but every time I come here, this thread is on top of recent topics. I am going to be so bloated the rest of the week. :/
